Drink beer every day, do you know the nutritional value of beer?

In foreign countries, men like to call beer liquid bread. Why is it called that? According to experts, the nutrition contained in beer is no less than that of some high-nutrition bread, and even richer than common food. However, many people drink beer every day, but they don’t know what nutritional value beer has.

Beer contains a variety of amino acids

Beer contains 17 kinds of amino acids, of which 7 are essential amino acids for the human body, and only lysine is missing. In particular, the amino acid content of beer produced by the bottom fermentation process is higher than that of the top fermentation process. In addition, beer contains almost no fat and will not cause the fat content in the blood to increase.

Beer has high calorific value

In addition to color, flavor and aroma, the quality of food is determined by its calorific value in nutrition. The higher the concentration of fermented juice, the more nutrients such as amino acids, proteins, sugars and alcohol that remain in the wine after fermentation, and the higher its calorific value. Beer products are rich in alcohol, sugars and various extracts, so they have a higher calorific value.

After conversion, based on the calorific value of beer at 12.0°P of about 430kcal/L, 1L of beer is equivalent to 5-6 eggs, 0.75L of milk, 250g of bread, and 500g of potatoes. Based on the energy consumption of a 60kg person of 2000-2500kcal/d, 5L of beer is enough for a day's energy consumption.

Beer nutrients are easy to digest and absorb

The alcohol content of beer is about 4.0% (volume fraction), which is easily absorbed by the human body. At the same time, alcohol absorption promotes metabolism and is also beneficial to the absorption of various vitamins in beer, including B vitamins (vitamin B1, vitamin B2, vitamin B6, vitamin B12), vitamin H, niacinamide, folic acid, pantothenic acid, inositol and choline, and is effective for symptoms such as hypertension and gastritis.
